Video • All Priests Should Learn Traditional Latin Mass

Andrew Leung · September 28, 2017

CAME ACROSS this video recently and discovered this new young adults group called the 2SPetrvs. Their goal is to produce “Catholic videos promoting liturgical-literacy, restoration of beauty & sacredness, all for the Salvation of Souls.” I am sure our readers would enjoy watching the videos on their Youtube Channel.

They recently did an interview with Archbishop Sample of the Archdiocese of Portland, Oregon:

He discusses his opinion (and others’ opinions) of the Extraordinary Form of the Roman Rite.

Opinions by blog authors do not necessarily represent the views of Corpus Christi Watershed.

Father Adrian Fortescue on the “Agnus Dei”

Speaking about the AGNUS DEI, Father Fortescue wrote: “Agnus as a vocative is curious, evidently in order to reproduce the original text (John 1:29) exactly.” [Altera die vidit Joannes Jesum venientem ad se, et ait: Ecce agnus Dei, ecce qui tollit peccatum mundi.] Father Fortescue, as usual, is correct; but in some medieval manuscripts you can find “Agne Dei.” Here’s an an example of that.

List • Responses by each bishop!

This incredible website gives each bishop’s response to the recent MOTU PROPRIO Traditionis Custodes, a decree by Pope Francis which seeks to reduce the number of celebrations of the “Extraordinary Form” (Traditional Latin Mass): traditioniscustodes.info

Tomorrow is Sunday…

When you were in school, you would have gotten in trouble if you wrote the Roman Numeral “9” as viiii. You were supposed to write: IX. But look how an ancient manuscript writes “9” as a Roman Numeral. That’s the Introit Ecce Deus for tomorrow’s feast in the Extraordinary Form: The 9th Sunday after Pentecost.
